Bitcoin’s Value Continues to Fall

Bitcoin’s price has failed to maintain a bullish trend above $24,000. Instead, BTC began another slide, trading below the $23,650 support level.

Bitcoin is trading below the $23,650 mark and the 100 hourly simple moving average. On the upside, an immediate resistance level is near $23,500, around the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the latest slide from the swing high of $24,438 to the low of $23,193.

The first significant obstacle on the upside is located near the $23,800 level. It is close to the recent slide’s 50% Fib retracement level from the swing high of $24,438 to the low of $23,193.
